Heat flow and lattice vibrations in glasses
Open accessAbstract
We show that the first theory of lattice heat conduction, formulated by Einstein in 1911, fits the thermal conductivity of amorphous dielectrics above 50 K with no free parameters. We conclude that Einstein's model, based on localized oscillators coupled by harmonic forces that produce relaxation times of the order of the period of vibration, correctly describes the majority of vibrational modes of glasses in the THz regime.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
